So that you have the rare chance to make the word oxymoron feel wanted- as in 'I haven't a single pair to wear'... that poor word gets hardly any chances at all to be in the public eye and as might be expected it becomes very depressed as a result - make an oxymoron happy, and string two contradictory words together today - let's make today the official oxymoron day from now on - put it in your diaries to be celebrated every year - SAVE THE OXYMORON! SAVE THE OXYMORON! - and remember 'an oxymoron a day... ....!?' (damn a forgotten memory, who'd have thought....!)
